  • A great podcast

    I love the way Beck asks real, practical questions to journalists, like do they prefer DM or email, short or long pitches, one follow-up or multiple, etc.

    This is very useful for publicists and always interesting to learn about the way journalists work.

  • Great conversation

    It was great talking with Beck as a guest on the show. She asked smart questions that elicited candid answers. As a journalist, I’m usually on the other side of the table, so I was especially impressed with Beck’s conversational, effective tone.
